The Best Pancakes I Ever Made: Gluten Free Almond Pancakes

March is National Nutrition Month. I like to think of it as a month of analyzing my progress on my health resolutions. I definitely need make a few tweaks. I have been eating an anti-inflammatory diet for some time now. It can definitely drive me crazy at times especially when it comes to baking. Baking is one of my true loves in life, so gluten free baking has been a huge challenge for me. I had such confidence with my tried and true recipes that require butter and wheat. Nonetheless, I have been diligent, and it has paid off.

Pancakes are one of my favorite weekend meals. In an attempt to get my pancakes back, I have been playing with gluten free flours. I feel like I finally got it right with these pancakes using almond flour. These even taste better than my original version where I used buttermilk. I like the texture this flour provides. Almond flour is also high in protein (6 grams per 1/4 cup) and in Vitamin E. It is also a low carbohydrate flour. I encourage you to look at some of your favorite recipes and see how you can make them healthier. Sometimes, it is just a simple substitution. Let me know if you try these. I promise you won’t be disappointed.
